This is one of Pakistan's largest air bases‚ and the scene of a militant attack on Thursday morning.
Pakistani authorities say Islamists armed with rocket propelled grenades and automatic weapons were behind the assault.
Nine militants and a soldier died during the gun battle which raged for several hours.
Residents living nearby said they heard the fighting in the early hours of the morning.
[Interview : Mohammad Khawar‚ College student] "At around 2 or 2.15am we heard a lot of firing which was followed by loud explosions. This went on until around 4 in the morning."
The militants are thought to have moved through a nearby village under cover of darkness and climbed a nine foot wall strung with barbed wires to break into the base.
An air force spokesman said the attack was repelled with only one aircraft damaged.
Swollen rivers in the aftermath of Kai-Tak.
The tropical storm left at least seven people dead after it swept through the Philippines early Thursday and set course for southern China.
Kai-Tak battered the northern Philippines‚ triggering deadly landslides in mountainous regions‚ and flooding agricultural areas.
But even with the storm gone‚ more monsoon rains were expected in the north of the country‚ and rivers were expected to continue to burst their banks.
Residents here are getting ready to evacuate.
[Interview : Emily Ganigad‚ Resident] "We have fears that the flood level will rise. We're not certain if it will‚ but we feel there's a risk because looking over here and over there‚ it seems we're surrounded by water."
This week's deluge is the latest wave of misery to hit the nation - last week‚ floods killed 95 people and displaced hundreds of thousands‚ causing more than 50 million U.S. dollars worth of damage.
